Even with all of this being said, there's no way this defense can be worst than last year's record setting one. The coaches who were responsible get fired and the new ones usually turn it around. If this defense doesn't and matches last season, it will be some kind of NFL record.

I'm not saying you're right or wrong. But for the purposes of discussion let us know why you think the Boys defense won't be as bad?

I see a horrible DLine that won't be able to rush the passer or defend the run.

I see what could be one of, if not the worst group of LB's in the league.

With a front seven this bad, the secondary can't help but suffer.

We might be nitpicking at the end of the year as we evaluate statistical categories that measure defenses and maybe they won't measure as bad as last year. But I think it's going to be an ugly year._________________Northland

Well, by week 9 Dallas should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 3-4 wins, with a Thanksgiving game vs Philly and an 0 for Decemember staring them in the face.
Great time for all those wanting to go back to the 3-4 defense to start posting their coaching wish lists._________________Kiltman on the sig & avy

This is the issue. If we tank this season like some of us think will Jerry pull the plug on Garrett?_________________Northland

Has too. Four seasons of no improvement should get anyone fired. It's too bad too. I think Garrett is an excellent personnel guy._________________Kiltman on the sig & avy

I think the hate on the defense is not overblown, but a waste of energy. Sure, they'll be terrible. But the way the NFL is putting offense in the forefront, I feel like we'll see a record in points scored across the board, and the new way to win football games is to score points. This team can do that, and as long as they can put up points against other teams they'll be in every game._________________
